Around Architecture brings together five Masters of Fine Arts candidates to explore aspects of architecture, space, materiality and the process of building. Timed to coincide with the opening of Te Ara Hihiko, the new College of Arts building that sits beside the Engine Room, this exhibition encourages the viewer to look at built space and to be aware of ones own perceptions as they move in time. Issues surface connecting the selection and transformation of materials with function and interpretation: placement and scale in relation to the body over time; and image in relation to place and history.
